Can anyone tell me how to use Evo 1.1 to browse an Active Directory

General pane:
      * Server name: your server
      * Log in method: Using distinguished name (DN)
      * Distinguished name: DOMAIN\username

All good here. 

Connecting:
Port 389, nothing else for now.

      * Search scope: Sub

Yep.

Now, having said all that, it seems that there's a bug in the code
right
now... if you set Search scope to "Sub", it gets saved as "Base"
instead, and so it doesn't work. But if you quit evolution and edit
~/evolution/addressbook-sources.xml by hand to fix that, it should
work.
Didn't get bit by this one..but I modified it by hand anyway to make
sure.

The message I receive, no matter what I enter for my password, correct
or not, is:

"We were unable to open this addressbook. This either means you have
entered and incorrect URI, or the LDAP server is down."

Neither of these things is true..unless I'm supposed to be using
ldap://someserver as the server criteria?
